So I just went to the basement to check on my first all grain batch that I brewed yesterday and the lid on the bucket is pushed way up but still on and the airlock is filled with krausen. There is some spattering of krausen around the bucket but I'm not concerned about that.
What does concern me is what do I do about the airlock? It was filled with vodka before being overwhelmed by krausen. Do I take it out of the bucket, clean it and replace it? Do I just leave it alone? Its not bubbling right now but I can hear a hiss of gas escaping from somewhere.
